AT&T Park is at the very top of my list of ballparks I need to visit. The one time I was in San Francisco (April 2006), the Giants were on the road and I had to settle for McAfee Coliseum instead. Yuck. It really is as crappy in person as it looks on TV.

I have a friend who lives out in San Francisco and she suggested I come out and visit next August for the Sox/Giants series.

Pondering the SEA - SF road trip next year in August. Anyone ever taken Amtrak on that route? Seems like it'd be fun.

I've taken the Empire Builder from Seattle (maybe Portland? I don't remember, I was younger) before. I wouldn't recommend going both ways on the train (it's just a really, really ****ing long trip) but one-way is actually pretty nice. You just have to treat it as part of your trip and not just getting from Point A to Point B.

And they play @ SF too, right? So they have SF in a home and away series. Would this be the Sox first trip to SF? The LA week-long visit is interesting too.

You are correct, I missed that... ****, when was the last time the Sox played a home and home interleague series with an opponent that wasn't the Cubs?

The fact that they'd be in Seattle the week before is extremely intriguing to me. Seattle is one of my favorite cities to visit, I haven't been there in forever, and San Francisco is on my list of cities to visit, plus I think our cousins there will have had the 2nd kid, so we'd need to visit, them too...

"I give you five minutes when we get there. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're running it down. I don't carry a gun. I drive."

I know that this season has been largely forgettable, but I believe the Sox played the Mets in a home and away series earlier this year.

You are correct. It appears that this is the first year that this has happened, though, so it looks like a home and home series with 1 interleague opponent is now the norm in the era of balanced divisions?
